Cast
Main
Poppy Lee Friar as Eve, the main protagonist of the series. Eve is a newly-awakened gynoid whose appearance is based on Helen, the deceased twin sister of Eve’s “mother”, Mary Douglas, as she appeared during the 1970s. In public she assumes the guise of Will's cousin from the United States. Eve is socially inept and often unaware of the many dangers she often finds herself in, but with help from her adopted family she learns to pass for a human and decide her own course.
Oliver Woollford as Will Clarke, a teenage boy who awakened Eve and Dr. Clarke's son. He develops a strong relationship with Eve and holds a fierce desire to protect her, even at the cost of his own safety though his stubbornness often brings him into conflict with his family and friends.
Eubha Akilade as Lily Watson, a genius teenage girl and socially awkward hacker who is Will's best friend. She also forms a close friendship with Eve and despite occasional jealousy, is both fascinated by and protective of the often ignorant gynoid.
Rhona Croker as Dr. Katherine Calvin, the central antagonist of the first season; a brilliant but highly contemptuous and ambitious scientist and manager of Calimov Systems. She usually holds Nick and his family in little regard.
